i feel that killswitch engage is pretty famous for their cover of dio's holy diver. although killswitch engage got jesse leach back after he left, i'm really going to miss howard jones on vocals. his screams weren't bad, but i really loved his singing voice; he sounded like a modern day dio to me. that's part of the reason the cover was so good. of course, the added weight to the song is really nice too. killswitch engage does pinch harmonics the best, and that really helped a lot of the parts. the verses are really awesome because of the palm muted rhythms using combinations sustained and staccato playing styles. to me, the verses are heavier than the breakdown. i don't really feel like my writing is flowing very well, so i'm just going to stop. have a good listen. if you're not a metal fan, i think you'll still like this track.
